"Housekeeper's Friend"

A large wall bag to housekeeper, is
what desk full of pigeon holes is to
the business man. 1t is large piece
of strong gray drilling with dozen
(or more or less) pockets sewed on,
three rows of four pockets, OF four
rows of three according as you have a
long or broad wall space on which to
hang it. These pockets are from six
inches deep and five broad to twelve
by ten, according to the slowing room
you require, they are stitched on and
on each is written in large plain letters
with ink the contents; for instance but
tons, tapes, ribbons, braids, curtain
rings, etc.; in short, all the articles that
NAV be too useful to throw away, yet
because they are not new or seldom
used, may not find place in the work
basket. Ribbons little soIled, just
the thing to line or bind or strengthen
some article, tapes still strong, or but
tons from garment old fashioned but
sure to come in again, odd buttons too,
that only cucumber the regular button
box All the odds and ends we may
think it sort of duty to keep, if we
have thrifty soul, yet which are
nuisance if we constantly come across
them, may find appropriate homes in
these Catherine Queen, IN Good
Housekeeping.

'sThe dim cathedral arches DER my head
The fretted aisles where the long shadows
play,
Why do they look less calm and sweet?" he
said,
Pacing the solemn-sounding nave ut will,
Martin the Monk, at Lincon-on-the-Hill.
"was it but yesterday l kneIt within
My quiet cell, that looks across the hill,
And saw the city, mist-wreathed, hushed
and still,
Nor dreamed thought that might be called
For my desire seemed then to be
OF praising God through eternity.
was it but yesterday paced SO late
The cloister cool, and watched the shadows
Upon the nodded stonework of the wall;
When one man cried: AT the outer gate
klnsman Brother Martin, waits for thee,
And prays that thou wouldst pass to Galilee.'
In the carved porch, the lovely Galilee,
From which a glimpse OF roots and courts is
Sun-touched, with many a bright-clad form
greet him with gladness for that he,
My kinsman, brought me from my distant
Tidings from lips to me long time dumb.
HE spoke of home, of parents, and the pain
That one had borne, of love, and joy, and
Told of success of triumph, and of strife;
Then turned him to the busy world again.
And /, the monk, back to the cell did go,
With downcast face, and footsteps sad and
slow.
"Ahl what a narrow cell is mine, and bare;
Could have triumphed in the outer world?
Loved and the banner of success unfurled!
Is my long life to be one constant prayer,
Bounded by gray cathedral arches still:"
Sighed the young monk at tLincon-on-the-Hill
Lol as he drew adown the holy choir,
Where the glad angels wait upon the wall
Where hung the crucifix ray did fall,
Touching the Savior with a crown of fire;
And Martin, seeing this, was tain To kneel,
For that his soul a reverent awe did feel
Martin, / bore upon the cross for thee
Forsake Me-shrinking from thy burden
now?
Martin, cans't thou not bear thy cross for Me?'
And Martin, kneeling, saw that gracious head,
Thorn-croWned, and weary, and with tears he
said:
Lord, will follow Thee! my cross is light,
My heart is Thine." and with these words
the ray
Slipped from the wall; and Martin passed
away
Back to his cell, and from that summer night
No man sang praise to God with lustier will
Than Martin, Monk, at Lincoln-on-the-Hin.

On Jekyl Island, Georgia, is band
of horses so wild that they run at the
sight of man. ~William Turner, who
has charge of club house on the is
land, says that the other morning one
of these horses came to the barn, APP
parently in great pain, allowed herself
to be haltered, and showned unmis-
taxable signs of gratitude when Tur-
ner doctored her and gave her relief.
Usually these horses are very stub
born and vicious, and nearly die of
starvation before they will yield to
man.

The young man rose up quickly from

know how much think of you. Do

The young woman simply shrugged
her shoulders as she remained calmly
seated upon the sofa.

straw! And by what right?"
..By the right you gave me, in al
lowing me to believe you loved me for
six months past"

..But now, 1 am to understand, you
do not?" the young man asked, through
his set teeth.

Mario remained motionless before
her-a tine-looking young man, whose
athletic figure, robust and graceful,
showed to advantage in the Paris suit
he wore. He remained staring at her
silently, looking straight into her eyes,
as if struggling with himself to repress
a furious impulse to strangle her then
and there-an impulse which betrayed
itself in the flash of his black eyes.
THAT is your final resolve?" he
asked, with painful effort.

Eleven o'clock. The Cirque d'Au-

Miss Dora had suddenly made her
appearance, alighting with a bound in
the center of the arena-light and nim-
BILE as a bird-her fight and slender
figure arrayed in pink silk tights. A
murmur of admiration runs through
the circus, and vast circle of opera
glasses flash upon her in ring. The
tight-rope dancer bows right and left,
gracefully bending her limbs, showing
a fine double row of white teeth as she
smiles upon the audience. Then, step
ping ten PAGES back, and catching a
rope hanging before the stable en-
trance, she commences to ascend slow
ly and easily-hand over hand.
Now she is upon her wire, leaning
against the double ropes which form
the termination of the apparatus. A
moment she remains thus, smiling
down upon the sea of faces watching
her from below. Then she puts one
foot forward, and strokes the wire with
the sole of her slipper. In another mo-
ment she will begin.

clowns are performing series of tum
